Abstract:

As a key component of new power systems, energy storage has achieved rapid growth in the market. Simultaneously, as the energy storage industry is developing, energy storage accidents are occurring regularly, the majority of which are lithium-ion battery energy storage accidents, raising public concerns about the safety of energy storage. The energy storage industry urgently needs to clarify the energy storage safety standards, improve the requirements for energy storage systems, and avoid vicious accidents.This study examines energy storage project accidents over the last two years, as well as the current state of energy storage accidents and the various types of energy storage technologies. This study focuses on sorting out the main IEC standards, American standards, existing domestic national and local standards, and briefly analyzing the requirements and characteristics of each standard for energy storage safety. Finally, from the perspective of the whole life cycle of the energy storage project, this study summarizes the issues to be further solved in the energy storage safety standards at various stages, such as design and construction, transportation, operation and maintenance, and emergency rescue and decommissioning, and provides relevant suggestions for the development of related work in the next step to promote the enhancement of relevant standards and lay a foundation for the safe and healthy development of the energy storage industry.

Key words: energy storage, lithium-ion battery, safety standard
